Evert retweeted Shriver's tweet with a series of emojis and the latter replied to it by saying that she still had the note the 18-time Grand Slam champion left for her at the hotel ahead of the final against Zina Garrison.
"Happy Anniversary pal! I still have the note you left me at hotel wishing me luck in the finals!" Shriver wrote.
